^ Ok, I like that casting with Daigo as Kaname and Miura as Zero. Honestly I'm sick of Yamapi and Kame... I don't think Kame fits the Kaname role, he's not tall enough, and the vampire aura is not present. He's not really who I imagine as Kaname...

Same goes for Yamapi. Yamapi's acting skills are not really what I call... amazing -- and he's not sensitive, tortured, woobie-ish enough to be our dear Zero. And there's the fact that he's also not tall enough for the role...

I don't mind Horikita Maki as Yuuki. I'm not fond of her, but she fits the role to a tee. Not gonna discriminate against that...

Since Zero and Kaname's casting is the only thing that matters to me (XD) here are my humble casting choices:

KANAME - TETSUJI TAMAYAMA

Kaname is an immortal vampire, people. He's not supposed to look 'young' or 'fresh'... I really think casting an ambiguously-aged actor to play him would be perfect. And Tetsuji pulls off the mysterious, seductive Kaname perfectly.

ZERO - MIURA HARUMA

I agree with people who picked his as Zero. He's perfect! C'mon -- he has even played a similar character to Zero in Koizora already... he also has the sharp facial features, acting skill, and height to pull off Zero.

Feel free to disagree with me... (but not with Yamapi and Kame please >_>)

I won't disagree with you.

Although I only based my observation by reading posts. I haven't encountered reading nor watching Vampire Knight. :p

I thought Yamapi's agency has been choosy picking roles? I don't think they'll take this one. [I sense myself being just bias] lols.

I used to heavily support kamenashi kazuya as kaname and yamapi as zero and horikita maki as yuuki
buuuttt nowww i've changed my mind because recently i watched vampire stories brothers/chasers and i think kazuki kato as kaname would be perfect!!! He plays the aloof vampire in this movie and has a vampire aura around him, silent but deadly yet also in a way loyal to his vampire brother...now if he were ever to play kaname he would just need to be scripted to portray convincing emotions and loyalty to yuuki's character which shouldnt be too hard because i think he may be a good actor for that ^^ there are some really good emotional parts that he plays very well and some tiny actions here and there that really exude perhaps his real life vampire nature ;D haha jk but he does look pale, cold, very experienced and knowledgeable, has a sad aura, is cool, calm, and collected, etc
This is how he looks like:

Kazuki kato plays alongside yanagishita tomo (his brother in the movie) so maybe him as zero would be a good fit too, since he has the loyal, not evil nature role nailed down
This is a playful pic of him but he's much more serious in the movie LOL
here's a screenshot from the movie (maybe that girl can even play yuuki, since she's the sister of yanagishita tomo and kazuki kato in the movie and takes care of tomo just like in the manga yuuki takes care of zero....also she's self sacrificing and kind in the move like yuuki) this is the rare moment in the movie where kazuki kato smiles ^^ he's usually just cold, unsmiling or has a devilish, knowing smile
thinking about zero's role, i even wondered about kamenashi kazuya being zero instead of as kaname ^^ but that didnt seem like a good fit

yuuki's character can be played by so many girls in the industry but i think the better choices would be the girl mentioned in the pic above since this movie seemed to have set up a perfect three person pair that could carry over into a vampire knight live action as well (the only diff is that in this movie the three are all siblings, tho the sister is a sister from a second marriage) OR horikita maki would be a good yuuki

Also, if you really wanna watch a vampire knight live action, the closes to that would be vampire stories movie, it's like a warped form of vampire knight and i wont spoil anything but you'll see a HECK OF A LOT of similarities such as resisting blood lust and to not bite the girl one loves and just a LOT more i can't spoil
